Chateau l'Oiseliniere de la Ramee Muscadet (Melon de Bourgogne)

This is a very elegant, mineral driven white wine from a region in the north of France known as the Loire Valley. Muscadets come from an area close to the sea which accounts for the lovely chalky/minerally component of this wine. It has a slightly floral nose of jasmine & honeysuckle which is complemented by light fruit flavors of pears & citrus fruit. The experience of this wine is further enhanced by the slightly round texture you feel on your tongue. It’s an extremely beautiful & elegant wine. The flavors would really shine if paired with seafood – especially scallops or oysters. This kind of quality is unusual for under $20.
